Silent laughter...

How funny is this card?

Holy Crap Pete...is that you? When my Nana saw this, she started crying she was laughing so hard. It's one of my favorite things in life...seriously!

Nana's laugh starts with a burst of laughter, her nose wrinkles up (it's in the family), eyes squinting and she's giggling endlessly. The tears start to shed and she is now into the throws of 'silent laughter'...giggling so hard with no sound...until she comes up for a gasp of air that she needs before she continues on for more. Because of her asthma, she finally ends in a laughing coughing fit and she's got mascara running down both sides of her face. Anyone around her has already joined her in her fit of laughter. Absolutely LOVE IT!

This card got her going too... we even reinacted the poor bunny scene.

Easter is one of my favorite holidays. I love the 'rebirth' of the season and the true meaning behind Easter. The spring colors, flowers in bloom and of course ...coloring Easter Eggs! John and I spent the evening decorating with all sorts of techniques and this was our masterpiece for the year.

John, indeed, is a 'special egg' and extremely talented in the easter egg coloring dept.
